hello, world. my name is ilene (aka illy). this is my blog where i like to write about life, laughter and the pursuit of real happiness. creamer with a pinch of coffee, songs played on repeat, red velvet cupcake with cream cheese frosting, and reading into the hours of the night top my list of favorite things. and life. i am a follower of Jesus and i love life.

LOOKING FOR SOMETHING?

i got to hang out with the coolest uncle and my almost-niece in the world over the weekend. you might recognize precious Lily Rose from here and my ever so popular model for the shop. she's getting so big - and doesn't she have the prettiest eyes ever?

and i love how i caught her and Uncle Ryan having a conversation. i think i took a million pictures of their little convo. she loves her Uncle Ryan so much. but of course, she and i had our own little conversation, too. she had a little cupcake on her onesie which sparked a conversation about our upcoming cupcake date. well, as soon as she is able to eat a cupcake, of course. our mini cupcake date is in the works at least.

and also thank you, thank you a million times over for all who participated in last friday's awesome October Follow Fest! it was seriously a blast - and i personally stumbled upon some new blogs and friends. mark your calendars for Friday, November 25 - rumor has it, it's the next date for another incredible Follow Fest!
